mirror mirror on the wall

I was so luck to find this beautiful mirror at the flea this past Sunday.
I paid only $1.00. So now you see why I was so lucky. The mirror
part of it is damaged, but damaged in an interesting way.
That's okay because it's still beautiful in my eyes...

I have seriously contemplated in maybe opening my own little booth
at my local antique shop. I enjoy buying all these treasures. One of the main
reasons I have not is because I fall in love with everything I buy and don't
know if I can part with it. Same with the stuff I make. Kind of hard to let
it go. I put my heart into it.

I guess I sometimes still can create. It has gotten harder.
Sometimes nothing comes out and sometimes it does.

More flea market finds


My friend Michel decided to join me this early morning
to attend my local flea. We had fun plus we
found some good finds.... the beautiful mirror was only $1.00.

We got these beautiful old dolls $25.00 for three. The ole clock
was $3.00 and it really works. The cup and saucer was a great find
and I am sending it to my swap partner if I can part with it. Misc
dishes ranged from a few for a $1.00 and the prices went up to $3.00.
All in all we got a few great treasures...

My friend Linda put the itch in me to start collecting vintage
ornaments... I found a basket full of these beauties this past weekend.

Linda plans on making a beautiful ornament wreath for Christmas. I will just
display mine in a glass bowl or maybe around a candle... Can't wait for Christmas to
come around.....

Some of my recent finds. I took some more pics of more
finds trying to practice on my picture taking. Photography
was always my first love so I think I am trying to rekindle the
romance again....

What a fun weekend......My son was in a baseball tournament all the way in Sullivan, MO. It was a hike from our home, but fun was had by all... good ole family fun..good ole baseball fun.

The younger kiddies had fun running around after each other and of course shopping at the concession stand for gum, candy, hotdogs, drinks.... You name it they had it.

On another note, I did get a chance to run to my local flea and I finally scored a wicker set. I could not bring the love seat home because I still had baseball stuff in my trunk for todays final games. I will run over next weekend to pick up the rest. It was luck plus the price was great for all three pieces. Would of been nice if it was a little bit more shabbier, but I am sure in time it will be just right.....

I will have to add more pics of the other goodies I found. My friend Linda Harre has me started now on collecting old christmas ornaments (which by the way I got a nice size basket filled with vintage ornaments for $5.00). I am not going to make a wreath. My plan is to fill up a bowl or a glass dome/container... I think if I start now, I should have a good amount collected by November when my flea starts closing down for the season... I promise to add more pics soon.

Hope you had a wonderful weekend as well...... just me
